Summer Trials

Inclusion in any of the standard summer disease trials costs $850 per treatment. Treatments that require additional testing/sampling or abnormal application schedules may be subject to additional costs. There is no charge for non-treated controls.

Snow Mold Trials

Treatments in the main snow mold trial are included at sites in central WI and the UP of Michigan and cost $1,000 per treatment. Treatments can also be included in the Minnesota trial, which is held at courses in central and northern MN and costs an additional $1,000 per treatment.  A third ‘Pink Snow Mold’ trial is conducted at the OJ Noer Turfgrass Research Facility in Madison and costs $750 per treatment.  For more information on the testing sites please visit our Snow Mold Fungicide Trial Sites page.
